Everyone loves chocolate, silky soft, rich, gooey and sweet; dark,
milk and white. But what's a chocolate box holiday cottage -
does it come gift wrapped with ribbons? Well not quite, but
almost…

Yummy chocolate box cottages!

They do come in a selection of colours - usually white or pale,
pastel shades of pink, coral, yellow and blue. Some come
timber-framed with delightfully wonky walls. And rather than a
ribbon, they're often adorned with lots of pretty hanging
baskets and then their crowning glory is a wonderful thatched roof. You know the kind of
cottage you see on a postcard, the kind you often find in those
quintessential English villages in Devon, Suffolk and so on. Inside brings
delightful surprises too like heavily beamed ceilings,
stone-flagged floors and wood burning stoves - they're the
Champagne truffle of any cottage collection!

We also feature some holiday cottages that are more traditional
in style, with brick walls and a slate roof. They may not be
'chocolate box' themselves, but are included within this
category as they are located in a 'chocolate box' style of
village. So even if you don't get the wonky pink walls and beds
under thatch, you might get the view of one just across the
road!
